Matthew 26 : 48-56

   
48 Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying,
Whomsoever I shall kiss,
that same is he: hold him fast.
49 And forthwith he came to Jesus,
and said, Hail, master;
and kissed him.
50 And Jesus said unto him, Friend,
wherefore art thou come?
Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus and took him.
51 And, behold,
one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand,
and drew his sword,
and struck a servant of the high priest's,
and smote off his ear.
52 Then said Jesus unto him,
Put up again thy sword into his place:
for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
53 Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father,
and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
54 But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled,
that thus it must be?
55 In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes,
Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me?
I sat daily with you teaching in the temple,
and ye laid no hold on me.
56 But all this was done,
that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.
Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.




Today's Prayer...


Lord God,

We glorify your name.
How we wish our voices could ring out over all the world,
telling of the great things you have done for us,
praising you that we can come to you in Jesus Christ,
that we can worship, honor,
and thank you for all your goodness!
Safeguard all your children so that they hold to faith
and remain true to the message of the gospel.
May we thank and praise you for all you have
done this day and for your working in the hearts of many
people who are still unknown to us.
Your Spirit rules and calls people,
to bring them to you,
the Father in heaven.
Watch over us and continue to bless us.
Help us who belong to your people,
and protect us through the night.



In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
